An eighth-round pick of Pittsburgh in 1999, Robinson was skating
during Asiago's season opener against Renon when he fell to the
ice. He was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced
dead.

The cause of death has yet to be determined.

"The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins would like to express our
deepest condolences to the entire Robinson family," team CEO
Jeff Barrett said. "Darcy was a fun-loving and friendly member
of the team and was always seen around the rink with a smile on
his face. That's how all Penguins fans will remember him."

Robinson, who never appeared in a game for Pittsburgh, spent
parts of four seasons with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton from 2001-05,
collecting three goals and 18 assists in 158 contests. He was
entering his third campaign with Asiago after notching 10
tallies and 17 points in 66 games over the first two seasons.
